Chapter Twenty-Four: Washing Hands

At this moment, suddenly there were two "bang" rings outside the door, followed by the sound of drums, and there were gongs and drums shouting, obviously people from the official mansion came to the door, and the heroes were stunned, only to see Liu Zhengfeng hurriedly running out of the inner hall wearing a familiar robe, along the way the heroes congratulated happily, Liu Zhengfeng responded with a smile and walked out of the door.

But after a while, he respectfully accompanied an official in official uniform to walk in, but he saw the official stand in the center, and the official behind him knelt down with his right leg, and raised his hands above the top, presenting a tray covered with yellow satin, and a scroll was placed on the plate. The official bowed, took the scroll, and said loudly: "The holy decree has arrived, and Liu Zhengfeng will listen to the decree." ”

I saw Liu Zhengfeng bend his knees, so he knelt down, kowtowed to the official three times in a row, and said loudly: "Weichen Liu Zhengfeng listens to the order, long live my emperor, long live, long live." When the heroes saw it, they were all stunned.

The official unfolded the scroll and read: "Fengtian carries the emperor's edict and says: According to the governor of Hunan Province, Liu Zhengfeng, a commoner in Hengshan County, is anxious for justice and righteousness, and his merit is in Sangzi, and he is skilled in bows and horses. ”

Liu Zhengfeng kowtowed again and said: "Weichen Liu Zhengfeng thanks the emperor for his grace, long live my emperor, long live, long live." He stood up, bent down to the official, and said, "Thank you, Lord Zhang, for cultivating and promoting." ”

The official twisted his beard and smiled, and said, "Congratulations, congratulations, General Liu, from now on, you and I will be ministers in the same palace, but why be polite?"

Liu Zhengfeng said: "The young general was originally a reckless horseman, and today he was awarded an official by the imperial court, which is the emperor's grace and wide beneficial, so that the young general will glorify his ancestors, but he is also the over-qualified cultivation of the Dao Grace Minister, the Governor and the Lord Zhang." ”

The official laughed, "Where, where." ”

Liu Zhengfeng turned his head to Fang Qianju and said, "Brother Fang Xian, what about the gift from Lord Zhang?" Fang Qianju said: "I have been here for a long time." He turned and took a disc, and in the middle of it was a brocade wrap.

Liu Zhengfeng took it with both hands and said with a smile: "A little courtesy, not a respect, Lord Zhang smiled." ”

The Lord Zhang smiled and said, "My brother, Lord Liu is so polite." With a wink, the officer beside him took it. When the officer took the plate, his arms sank downward, and it was evident that the contents of the plate were not light, not silver but gold.

The adult smiled and said: "The younger brother is on official business, you can't stay for a long time, come and come, pour three glasses of wine, congratulate General Liu on his appointment today, and soon he will be promoted to the rank of knight, the emperor's grace, and the quilt." ”

I have already poured wine left and right. Mr. Zhang drank three glasses in a row, arched his hand, and turned around to go out.

Liu Zhengfeng was full of smiles and sent straight to the gate. I only heard the sound of gongs and shouts, and Liu Fu sent a salute again.

This scene was unexpected, everyone looked at each other, and they couldn't make a sound, and everyone's faces were embarrassed and surprised.

Liu Zhengfeng walked in front of the group of heroes, his face was full of joy, and invited everyone to take a seat.

The heroes sat down, and the servants came up to offer food and wine. Mi Weiyi brought out a coffee table with brocade on it. Xiang Danian held a golden basin with a golden radiance and a half-foot-long diameter in both hands, and placed it on top of the coffee table, which was already filled with water.

I could only hear three bangs outside the door, followed by eight big firecrackers in a row. This scene was unexpected, everyone looked at each other, and they couldn't make a sound, and everyone's faces were embarrassed and surprised.

Although the guests who came to Liu's Mansion were not people in the underworld, nor were they criminals, but they were famous in the martial arts, and they were all self-regarded figures, and they had never looked down on the government. The older guests thought, "Look at this situation, his official hat must have been bought with gold and silver, and I don't know how much gold and silver he spent to buy the governor's guarantee." Liu Zhengfeng has always been an upright person, how can he come to old age, and he is so distracted by Lilu that he actually buys an official to do it by unscrupulous means?"

A group of junior disciples sitting in the back hall and flower hall all flocked to the hall to see the excitement.

Liu Zhengfeng walked into the hall with a smile and hugged his fists. The heroes all stood up and saluted. Liu Zhengfeng said loudly: "Seniors, heroes, good friends, young friends. Everyone came from afar, Liu Zhengfeng is really gold on his face, and he is grateful.

From now on, Liu Zhengfeng will withdraw from the martial arts, and my disciples will switch to the head of Senior Brother Mo, and the little girl and two children will worship under Senior Brother Yue.

Liu invited you here to ask all your good friends to testify. After retiring today, Liu will go to the Huashan School to live in seclusion, specializing in the study of music and rhythm.

Naturally, all the friends are still good friends of Liu, but Liu can't ask about the rights and wrongs of all kinds of grievances in the martial arts. He said it again.

Only then did Qunxiong understand that Liu Zhengfeng donated an official body just for the sake of safety after retirement, after all, Liu Zhengfeng already had the identity of an official body at this time, and he could already be regarded as a person in the official mansion, and those enemies who wanted to find Liu Zhengfeng for revenge in the future should also take into account the reaction of the official government, and no matter how arrogant and inferior the martial arts people were, they would not dare to kill the people in the official mansion casually.

Otherwise, it will be a naked slap in the royal face, and at that time, the master of the Jinyi Guard will definitely come to the door, and it will be possible to destroy the family at the worst, or at worst.

At this time, Liu Zhengfeng turned around and said loudly: "The disciple Liu Zhengfeng was included in the disciple by the teacher and taught martial arts, but he was very ashamed that he failed to open the lintel of the Dahengshan faction.

Fortunately, there is Senior Brother Mo in this sect to preside, Liu Zhengfeng is mediocre, there are not many people who are more Liu, and there are many people who are less Liu. From now on, Liu will wash his hands of gold, concentrate on retiring, and study music and rhythm, but he will never use his teacher to pass on martial arts, grievances and grievances on the rivers and lakes, sectarian disputes, Liu Zhengfeng will never ask. If it is contrary to the word, there is such a sword. ”

After Liu Zhengfeng finished speaking, he flipped his right hand, pulled out the long sword from the bottom of the robe, wrenched it with both hands, and slapped it, breaking the sword into two.

When the heroes saw it, they were all shocked, from the sound of these two truncated swords inserted into the green bricks, this sword was obviously a sharp weapon for cutting gold and jade, and breaking an ordinary steel sword with the strength of his hands, with Liu Zhengfeng and other figures, he was not surprised.

But if such a weight is light, and a sword is broken effortlessly, the purity of kung fu on the fingers is really the attainment of the top master in the martial arts.

Mr. Wen sighed and said, "It's a pity, it's a pity!" I don't know if he regrets this sword, or if it's a pity that Liu Zhengfeng, a master like him, began to retire from the rivers and lakes when his righteous martial arts were at their peak, and did the study of music and rhythm.

Liu Zhengfeng smiled, rolled up his sleeves, stretched out his hands, and was about to put it in the golden basin, when he suddenly heard someone outside the gate shouting: "Stop!"
